About Bark

Here at BARK, we love dogs and their people. We're looking to make all dogs happy throughout the entire world (we're not kidding). BARK makes the most amazing products, with thoughtful insight and innovation, creativity and storytelling, and a dash of magic you won't find anywhere else. Our love for dogs is through the roof!

We launched in 2011 with BarkBox, a monthly-themed subscription of all-natural treats and the most innovative toys. Since then, we've shipped more than 70 million toys and treats to dogs across the world; we use our direct customer feedback to inform new initiatives and ways to deliver joy for dogs and their people.

Today, BARK leads the dog industry with our subscription and ecommerce products across toys, food, treats, toppers, dental, and accessories. Outside of our owned platforms, pups can find us in over 40,000 retail stores and on Amazon. Our social media following is robust and our customer service is best-in-class. In the end, we aim to make every dog happy and to become THE Dog Company for every family with a belly-scratch-loving pup.
